So you're saying emailing my resume from bonghits420@yahoo.com is a bad idea?

"Nah, not on me man"

:haha:

I've had some of my own resume stories. One chick sent me a cover letter and resume for an entirely different company. The position was correct, but the letter was to some communications company, and here "objective" was to get a position at said communications company. She also didn't send the required two writing samples.

My brother's a GM for a minor league baseball team and he gets a lot of hilarious ones. People get the wrong team name, wrong town, some have completely fabricated their resumes.
